Mother’s Day is tomorrow so I am scrambling to get a card together for mom! Hi, Margie here today and I am sharing my process in creating my Happy Mother’s Day Film Strip Card so come along!
Assembling the Film Strip Card Front
The card base was created by folding a 8.5 x 5.5 inch white cardstock in half to make a side-fold A2 standard card size (4.25 x 5.5 inch). Then I cut a 4.25 x 5.5 inch patterned paper panel and covered the card base front with the E-Z Runner® Grand Permanent Dots Refillable Dispenser.
Die-cut a film strip die with light blue cardstock and secure it on the left side of the card front with the E-Z Runner® Grand Permanent Dots Refillable Dispenser. I love using this adhesive tape because the dots hit the shape and skips over the gaps. Usually I use an Adhesive Sheets 4 x 6in. but ran out – GASP! LOL! Trim off the excess film strip and set aside.
Wear Your Adhesive on the Outside with 3D Creative Foam Sheet
Die-cut a solid butterfly with 3D Foam Creative Sheets Small White and a detailed butterfly from patterned paper. Cover the glitter with the solid butterfly (after removing the top liner), press to secure and tap off the excess. Set aside to create the sentiment.
Stamp the Sentiment
Using the stamp positioner, stamp the sentiment with dark brown ink on a piece of patterned paper and cut into a strip. With the glittered butterfly as a placement guide, adhere the sentiment with the E-Z Runner® Grand Permanent Dots Refillable Dispenser on top of the film strip.
Then adhere the glittered butterfly on the side of the sentiment by removing the bottom liner and adhere the detailed butterfly with the E-Z Runner® Grand Permanent Dots Refillable Dispenser.
To finish, accent with crystal glass rhinestones using the Adhesive Dots Micro. For smaller stones, I pull the adhesive dot to smaller piece to secure.
Now it’s ready to be sent to mom! Hope you enjoy my Happy Mother’s Day Film Strip Card tutorial and give it a try!
Thanks for stopping by and Happy Mother’s Day!
